A memorial service will be held 10:30 am, Monday, January 4th, at the ISKCON New Vrindaban Temple. Friends are welcome at the service and the reception at the family home from 2:30 to 6 pm.

Gosh made two specific requests:

1. The memorial ceremony should start and end on time.

2. Those wishing to do something in his honor should plant a fruit, nut or flowering tree.

So, please show up timely and plant that tree!
